Amman-based Digital Labels announced in July it has decided to introduce REVO Digital Flexo in its printing facilities through investing in a new Gidue REVO M5 Excellence machine.
REVO Digital Flexo Revolution is a project team of leading flexo companies to promote a new manufacturing method to “digitise” the flexo process, making it more consistent and cost effective and strengthening its leadership in labels and packaging.
Amer Sabha, who heads Digital Labels, said: “Colour matching for a converter is the greatest problem in real-life production.
REVO will allow us to achieve repeatable and predictable PMS shades. The Gidue digitally automated press makes the rest in terms of fast turnaround.”
REVO uses new software, hardware, UV flexo inks, digital plates, new-generation anilox rollers, seven colours separation, standardised substrates and digital automation on press exclusively provided by REVO Members: AVT, Adare, DuPont, Apex, Esko, Gidue, UPM Raflatac, Flint Group.
REVO team members provide together an off-the-shelf solution to labels and packaging converters, with a defined protocol of consumables, software and hardware technologies.
Founded in 2004, Digital Labels specialises in self-adhesive labels and flexible packaging for the food, beverage and automotive markets.
Digital Labels invested in 2004 in its first Gidue press, with film kit for tackling a wide range of substrates. It later purchased a second press for labels then in 2010 bought another for flexible packaging.
